Andrew Mountbatten Windsor faces mounting pressure to cooperate with the U.

Prince Andrew is facing mounting pressure to cooperate with the US Epstein investigation, with a UK prosecutor declaring he’s not above the law in the strongest indication yet that police will investigate the former prince.

The net around Andrew continues to tighten, with the UK’s top prosecutor making it clear that no one, regardless of their status, is exempt from scrutiny.

Calls are now growing for both British and US police to investigate his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, along with demands for a parliamentary inquiry into his time as trade envoy.

Revelations have emerged about Andrew’s time representing Great Britain on the world stage, with evidence showing Epstein was actually organising the prince’s meetings during an official trip to China.

Photographs buried within files also show the former prince socialising with a Chinese model at a dinner set up by the then convicted paedophile.

Police have confirmed they’ve had conversations with the Crown Prosecution Service, but so far no criminal investigation has been launched.

However, following the comments from the UK’s top prosecutor, many are now questioning whether Andrew could become one of the first members of the royal family to be jailed in centuries.
